Nice to see things are moving on with the 2.7. I'm just about to order a set of custom pistons through JE to build a long rod 2.3 just so i can get back racing. Read this thread to find that you have used JE as well. Have you got the measurements for your pistons or an order number so i can explain to JE the sort of piston i'm after.

I'm going the route you suggested by using 2.4 forged rods (easily available!!!) on a 2.2 crank with custom 97mm pistons. What comp ratio did you specify? Do you know what the combustion chamber volume is for the 2.2 head? Could you tell me the size of the cut outs for the valves you used (depths, diameters, etc). What is the max valve lift that the pistons will accomodate? I know the comp height wil be 35mm so i'm going to use the total seal rings.

Thanks in advance and as always excellent work... keep it up!!!!!
